The Institute of Chartered Accountants in
England and Wales (ICAEW) and the Big Four are collaborating in an
effort to encourage more Emiratis to become qualified chartered
accountants.

The ICAEW and Big Four will work in
partnership to develop a scheme to recruit and train Emirati
students to become UAE business leaders.

This follows the UAE government’s plans to
boost its economy by increasing private sector opportunities and
the ICAEW’s aim to strengthen the accountancy profession in the
Middle East.
